thanks got it. We still have many copies available - purchaser #51 receives a stairmaster.

A stairmaster........perfect for winter listening.......this may be too much to resist. :-)

[mikeweil]

Allen, just PayPal-ed the amount you e-mailed - please make sure to sue the packstation adress. This will be too large for the mailbox at the door, and some packages obviously have disappeared earlier this year that stuck out the opening ...

Thanks a lot, very much looking forward to listening.
